This trait adds path to your eloquent model ( $article->edit_path, $article->show_path, $article->update_path,$article->destroy_path).

EloquentRoutePaths.php

<?php
use Exception;

trait EloquentRoutePaths {

	/**
	 * Actions that are allowed to be performed on this 
	 * Model
	 * @var array
	 */
	protected $actions = ['show','edit','update','destroy'];

	/**
	 * Route name of this model, default is table name
	 * @var string
	 */
	protected $baseRouteName;


   /**
    * Get path for contribution
    * @return  string
    */
   protected function path($action = 'edit')
   {
   	  if (! in_array($action,$this->actions)) {
   	  	throw new Exception("Invalid Route Action in Model passed", 1);
   	  }
   	  // If user exciplicitly defined the route property
   	  // use it instead of default table name
   	  if (empty($this->baseRouteName)) {
   	  		$this->baseRouteName = $this->getTable();
   	  }

   	  return route($this->baseRouteName.'.'.$action,$this);
   }

   /**
    * Get edit path for this models
    * @return  string
    */
   public function getEditPathAttribute()
   {
   		return $this->path('edit');
   }

   /**
    * Get show path for the route
    * @return string
    */
   public function getShowPathAttribute()
   {
   		return $this->path('show');
   }

   /**
    * Update Path for this model
    * @return string
    */
   public function getUpdatePathAttribute()
   {
   		return $this->path('update');
   }

   /**
    * Destroy path for this model
    * @return string
    */
   public function getDestroyPathAttribute()
   {
   		return $this->path('destory');
   }
}

This trait adds http paths to your eloquent model, the goal is to have clean codes. It's inspired by a video I saw on.

   $Article->edit_path 

   $Article->show_path 

   $Article->update_path 

   $Article->destroy_path 

Usage

<?php
namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model
use App\EloquentRoutePaths;

class Article extends Model
{
   use EloquentRoutePaths;
}

And in your html call the route like this.

    <a href="{{ $article->show_path }}" >Show</a>

    <a href="{{ $article->edit_path }}" >Edit</a>
